Pine Mountain with the Family


     On Thursday, Matt, Addison, Presley and I headed to Pine Mountain to spend the weekend with my family.  We all stayed at a cabin together and enjoyed lots of time just hanging out and having fun.  Friday, we visited the Wild Animal Safari which was loads of fun.  I never dreamed I would be more scared of the animals than the kids.  Friday night and Saturday, we enjoyed the Balloon Festival at Callaway Gardens.  I am so thankful we had this time together with family!

Here are some pictures of our trip:

Presley sat with Nana and Papa in the front so she was safe from the crazy animals

Just a few of the many animals we saw on our journey. 
The zebras were a little scary when they opened their mouths to eat.

My Baby is 6 Months Old

I can't believe Presley is already 6 months old today.  These 6 months have gone by much to fast.  I love this baby stage, and I am sad to have it pass by this quickly:(
Updates at this stage:
-rolling over constantly
 -grabbing at her toys and passing them back and forth between her hands
 -loves her giraffe toy (thank you Aunt Mary Ann and Megan!)  She will get excited and start smiling when she hears it coming.
-loves hearing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and doing the motions for The Wheels on the Bus
-adores her big sister
-started solids a couple of weeks back and is not really a fan; so far she has tried applesauce, bananas and carrots tonight (seemed to like these:))
-she sleeps 11 hours at night and takes at least 3 naps a day(Thank you Moms On Call!!)
-she weighs 14.69 lbs(25%) and is 16.54 inches tall(38%)
She loves her big sis

How she likes to sleep at nap time

Sucking on a frozen rag

My girls

This is how she likes to go to sleep if someone is holding her.  She has to have her eyes covered.

Favorite toy

Lovin' on daddy

First taste of rice cereal

Big sis had to give it a try

She wasn't a fan of applesauce either

Trying to get her used to formula when I have to be away
